1891 Census - Badminton House

Some upper-class households were rather larger than others!  This is first page of the 1891 census for Badminton House.  It runs to 4 pages worth of census returns – amounting to 65 staff & servants.  At the time this was for just six family members and four visitors.  It is not known who compiled the returns for the house.  Although technically it should have been the Duke of Beaufort, one suspects that it fell to the House Steward, who is listed on page 2 of the return.
